MEXICAN LAND LAW DEFENDED IN STATEMENT Foreign Minister Saenz Says + Anti-Alien Law Is Lenient With Foreigners 9 ural ings on ject of convers ington and Mexico, is defended in-a diplomatic brief drafted by Foreign Minister Saenz, made public here by the Mexican ambassador. While making no mention of re- troactive provisions of the law to which this government has recently protested, the brief supported other phases imposing conditions under which foreigners may acquire land and stock in Mexican companies or concessions. The foreign minister declared the organie law of section 1 of article 27 of the Mexican constitution can- not be considered as an alien Jaw because it does not deal with the status of foreigners.

It was contended that no American can waive his national rights in that fashion.
